none peejay...

actually it creates slightly more drag. I kept mine for two reasons, it looks cool and if one breaks there is another one for safety. I already blew one once and the other one did the job for a couple of days before I replaced all the belts.

 

mine:

 

Yah, good point. I broke an alternator belt once (THAT will wake you up!) and had to drive 15 miles in the dark with no alternator to the nearest parts store. I knew the belt was bad, had big chunks missing from the back, I just figured if it breaks I could still drive the car since it has that BIG battery (lots of reserve) and the water pump would still be driven by the air pump belt.

Of course, when I was driving airpump-less I just kept a spare belt and some tools in the car. Just because i know, that if I carried them then I wouldn't need them.

 

I was at the auto wreckers, and they had a 88 and a 85 side by side, I pulled them off and tried it, it wouldnt go over that big domed thing. you got camber plates or something? Different struts?

 

Here is my engine and Dual Pulley

 

Just the coolness

 

Here's mine before I got matching belts.

 

eye spy an auto tranny in that there car if im not mistaken

 

Yelp dipstick gives it away

 

wheres my vanilla coke

 

eww man, that stuff has a moldy aftertaste...

 

Yeah it's an auto. I've got a pic of the other side of the engine bay if you'd like to see it.

 

I'm not one to miss out on a picture-whoring opportunity so here's mine...

 

you just want to show off your IDA

 

what an ***#%$#...























damn I love that engine

 

I guess I should show off some stuff too!

 

'86 B2000

 

'82 GSL

 

Baja

 

GLC

 

Bloody hell Jeff, how many cars do you have?

 

Look at his site! I think it's somewhere under a couple dozen

 

Nah, they aren't all mine, but I wish they were! and those were just the ones with dual belt pullies!

 

Fine, here's mine.

Damned pic is too small though. :'(

 

I'll getcha one of mine as soon as I get to my Dads house again, snap some pics, come home, upload them, and post them . I would upload and post from my Dads house, but where he lives there arent "new" phone lines so the 56K modem wont connect over 28800, and the connection wont work if its over 26400 . Anyway, it would take too damn long to do anything worth while there, so Ill just bring it home where I have my trusty cable internet .
